Script: Samba share from multi fixed servers

[Hoffy]

Woohoo. It works!!

Thanks so much for the help juuso.

I actually filled in the details before you posted. When I tried it the first time, it still didn't work.

Turned it on tonight to try it, and it's working.

I'm quite happy with having a physical USB inserted.

Thanks again.

First thx for this Script zoelechat! Works great!

Here I want to share my findings regarding mounting the internal HD of my PLAYON!HD2 (with SAMBA activated) to virtual USB:

Afer several hours of trail and error and reading many posts on different forum I found the key to mount the PLAYON!HD2 to the virual USB (with your script and setting the fixed IP of the PLAYON!HD2).

I seams that my PLAYON!HD2 needs a special lanman authentication to work...

The solution is as short an simple that I can not belive that it tooks me hours to find it

Maybe this could also be the key to some other external devices... However...

Just add the follwong line to: /mnt/etc/samba/smb.conf

Code: Select all

client lanman auth = yes

And this is the full smb.conf

Code: Select all

[global]
wins support = no
unix charset = UTF-8
dos charset = UTF-8
display charset = UTF-8
security = share

# set workgroup, own share etc...
include = /mtd_rwarea/smb.conf
# workgroup = SAMYGO
# netbios name = Samsung-TV
# server string = Some Server

client lanman auth = yes
load printers = no
printing = bsd
printcap name = /dev/null
disable spoolss = yes
guest account = root
guest ok = yes
guest only = yes
null passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /dtv/pp

[Samsung TV]
  comment = USB Drives on TV
  path = /dtv/usb
  public = yes
  writable = yes

Happy you got it to work and I hope sharing your experience will be useful to other people but I don't want to take all the credit, thanks to the original script which already do the job with one fixed server... I've just done a loop
Special thanks also to moderator/developers for their heavy work and follow-up

Hey guys,

Pls. can anybody share how to get this script working after installing SamyGo on my ES6600.

Thanks

Dear iDeep,

its very hard I explain the whole thing to each new user again and again... All the information needed is here on SamyGo Forum and SamyGo Wiki...

A good start is to read this whole Thread: viewtopic.php?f=53&t=5797
Here you'll find good hints and links...

Sorry but I think you wont get much answsers for question like "Please explain the whole thing" or "How does this all work" or "I installed SamyGo, What next?"

I was a SamyGo/Linux/Script noob only fews weeks ago. After much interset in this whole thing and of course reading and reading things are getting clearer and clearer...

Hi,

I did read threads and wiki, did as instructed but got stuck after installing SamyGo. Have a look at my support thread - viewtopic.php?f=52&t=5895 , I did my homework and tried to pinpoint the exact place where I am stuck. The whole point of support forums is to - "let experts support noobs", I dont expect experts to waste time explaining things again and again to noobs but pointing in right direction surely helps. I followed what is written on Wiki and the forum link you posted but FTP and telnet are not working !

Thanks

[fluffi444]

You mentioned this the first time that FTP and Telnet are NOT working.
Sorry but I could not help you further with this. Maybe your FW blocks something. Don't know.....

This is something for the real professionals.

But please update your Thread with this Information (no FTP, no Telnet, etc)! And dont forget your Firmware Version.

Finished here! We are to much off-Topic!!!!!

Code: Select all

client lanman auth = yes

Hahah it took a while also for me to apply this. My NAS need this as well.

Just one question:

after Samygo install do you have virtual USB in the souces of the TV ?
If yes you should have FTP running at your TV IP at port 21 and Telnet with putty at port 23.

If no Virtual USB is appearing, than the widget does not work on your TV. Provide a feedback with exact model of your TV.
